Try repairing I.E. first, whichever way you choose.
 
Go to Control Panel (Start / Settings / Ctrl. Panel)

1. Add-Remove Prog. 
2. Highlight MSIE & Tools
3. Click Add-Remove
4. Repair I. Exp.---OK---Yes
5. Will prompt to restart PC

Or......
IE Repair Tool-- Start - Run - (type) msinfo32 - OK --Tools - IE Repair Tool -- Repair 
IE. 

Note: If you get an error message saying it cannot be repaired, redownload and install 
then run the repair.

Then trim down your startup list. Right-click on the icons in the tray area, open 
each, go through the options to turn off the "tray" or "run at startup" feature. 

For the others, go to Start - Run, type: msconfig. Under startup tab....  Leave Systray, 
Scan Registry, Load Power Profile (two), firewall, if you have one. 

Note: Load Power Profile only if you use power saving schemes. For info. on any other 
processes that you have, check here....

Msconfig....Things safe to remove from startup:

Startups

Try this DLL Tweak. Windows doesn't do very well at unloading dll's from memory, 
when you close programs. This will help free up resources.

Unload DLLs
